| I remember Steve Martin saying 'consider it expunged' in 'Bringing Down The House'. I can't remember the context or what it meant, but it was a fucking awful film. Hope that helps. | |

| "Expunge means to erase or remove completely. It comes from the Latin expungere which is made up of ex (out) and pungere (to prick), meaning mark for deletion by means of pricks." | |

| I know what expunge means in general... I'm just not sure how it is different from deleting in an email context. | |

| This latest Harry news is hilarious. Wouldn't be surprised if he accidentally subscribes to the KKK newsletter next. | |

| On my uni e-mail account, you can delete an e-mail but it stays in your inbox with a "deleted" tag on it. Later you can "undelete" it if you want. But if you press the "expunge" button, it permanently removes all e-mails tagged as deleted. | |
